Internet marketing is just marketing… done online.
But because people love buzzwords, it usually means a mix of tactics like SEO, ads, social, email, and content.
The goal is the same: get attention → earn trust → make sales (without being annoying).
The 5 main internet marketing buckets 🪣
1) Search
Earn traffic from search engines via SEO.
2) Paid
Pay for reach with ads (Google, social, display).
3) Content
Create helpful site content that answers questions and builds trust.
4) Email
Turn visitors into subscribers (see email marketing).
5) Partnerships
Affiliates, referrals, collaborations (see affiliate).
The mistake most people make 🚩
They pick tactics before they pick a purpose.
Start with web site purpose and your site audience. Then build your plan (see web site planning).
If you don’t, you end up with random marketing activities that look busy… and do nothing.
